Hello,

Building up an 06 Demo 8 frame I got. My questioni is I think I read somewhere that I need an offset rear wheel??
Does that mean I cannot by stock - that it needs to be built up specific for this frame?

135mm rear.

Thanks

From memory I think it's a 6mm offset. I had a local bike shop offset my wheels. I don't believe it requires a specific build.

Yes, it's 6mm offset. If you are building the wheels from scratch you'd use different spoke lengths than normally, but you can re-dish a pre-built wheel.

If you use a dishing tool, you set one side as normal, and then when you measure the other side it will be off by double, so 12mm.
